Precinct 114: Crosswalk deaths, quiet corners, unanswered power

Precinct 114: Crosswalk deaths, quiet corners, unanswered power

Precinct 114: Jan 1, 2022 - Sep 5, 2025

Just after Aug 31 at 30 St and 39 Ave, a Ford SUV turned right and hit a woman in the marked crosswalk. Police coded it as failure to yield; she died at the scene (NYC Open Data).

They are one of 20 people killed on streets in Precinct 114 since Jan 1, 2022, alongside 3,029 injured and 22 seriously hurt (NYC Open Data). So far this year, deaths are up to 7 from 4 at this point last year, a 75% rise (NYC Open Data).

This Week

  • Aug 31: 30 St and 39 Ave — pedestrian killed by a right‑turning SUV; failure to yield listed (NYC Open Data).
  • Aug 30: 23 Rd and 29 St — sedan making a left hit a man in a marked crosswalk; failure to yield listed; he was injured (NYC Open Data).
  • Aug 12: 42 St and 19 Ave — a crash killed a 70‑year‑old man on foot, an 84‑year‑old driver, and an infant boy; two parked cars were also struck (NYC Open Data).

A bridge away, police said, “A driver was arrested… after a horrific Ed Koch‑Queensboro Bridge crash… that left a pedestrian dead” (amNY). The charge: leaving the scene.

Failure to Yield, Hardened Turns, Human Cost

  • The Aug 31 death was coded “Failure to Yield Right‑of‑Way.” The Aug 30 crosswalk injury was, too (NYC Open Data). These are turn conflicts. They happen at the line where people walk.
  • Pedestrians and cyclists carry the damage here: since 2022, 6 pedestrians and 3 cyclists were killed in this precinct (NYC Open Data).
  • Deaths cluster at 8 AM (5 deaths) and 11 PM (3 deaths), with other spikes before dawn and mid‑afternoon (NYC Open Data). Morning commutes. Night streets.

Streets That Keep Breaking People

  • Northern Boulevard leads the board for injuries in Pct 114. So does 34 Avenue, and 42 St has seen three deaths (NYC Open Data).
  • SUVs and cars do most of the harm to people on foot here: among pedestrian injuries since 2022, the largest shares involve sedans and SUVs (NYC Open Data).

What would help now: daylight every corner; give walkers a head start; harden the turns. Target failure‑to‑yield at known hot spots on Northern Boulevard and along 34 Avenue. Aim enforcement at the hours when deaths spike.

Power Sits With City Hall and Albany

  • The city can set safer speeds. Advocates are pushing a default 20 MPH limit and real tools for repeat speeders. Our full call to action is here.
  • The Stop Super Speeders Act (S4045C/A2299C) would put speed‑limiters on the worst repeat offenders. The Assembly Member here is Jessica González‑Rojas. The State Senator is Toby Stavisky. The Council Member is Tiffany Cabán. This record does not show whether they have co‑sponsored that bill.

Twenty dead since 2022. Two crosswalk hits in two days. The line is paint. The fix is power. Use it. Then check back at the corner where she fell. And make sure no one else does.
